Cape town and where I am at

This is me, on the balcony of the flat I live in, How friggin gorgeous is that view? Also its going to be hard moving to the burbs when the time comes. My first 2 weeks in Cape Town have been surreal and wonderful and scary, all at the same time. The lead up to CT wasn't as great as I would have liked but we can't win at everything. The weekend before I left, I met up with Azra  and we had a fun few hours that Saturday, It was hot and I was so thirsty, the problem though, I left so late I couldn't see so well. The sunday when my vision still hadn't cleared, I knew something was up. Finally on Monday I went to the doc, and he confirmed my worse fear, I was diabetic and my blood glucose had spiked to 29.6. Anyone familiar with this illness knows I was 5 points short of a coma. Anyhoo thats me, yin and yang all the damn time. How are you?

Beautiful people do not just happen

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.
